You stick a needle in my arm
The other end a fountain pen
And I would bleed myself dry
Trying to find the perfect words
To calm the thrashing in my soul
A million memories in one last breath
On my lips would be a name in sin

You’re a fire raging
Flames lapping in your soul
Let me dance, my love
Let me dance in the inferno

I wish I could take it all back
Every word, every smile
You took your knife
And you carved your name into me
So that every time I looked in the mirror
All I would ever see was you
I wouldn't wish that upon anybody
Because all that is left of me
Is what was left of you

you say you love rain, but you use an umbrella to walk under it.
you say you love the sun, but you seek shelter when it is shining.
you say you love the wind, but when it comes you close the windows.

so that's why I’m scared when you say you love me.

Valsa George
as their eyes met,
sparks of love
emitted
emotions swelled,
passions surged

like a well
full to the brim
a tear drop
glistened
in her eyes

cutting across
the borders,
it slithered down
her creamy cheek

as

a freshly formed
globule of dew,
cracking
into zillion
rays of light,
creating
a zillion wavelets
of joy

suddenly,
she turned
into a forest aflame
he,
a river in spate!

If there comes a time
that you might lose me
Find me in my poetry
